Description

Technical Field

[0001] Example embodiments of the present disclosure generally relate to the field of protective equipment, and in particular, to a helmet and cycling equipment with detection functions. Background Art

[0002] According to the needs of road safety, riders need to wear helmets to protect themselves when riding bicycles or motorcycles. Shared bicycles and shared motorcycles therefore also provide smart helmets for riders to wear. At present, the vehicle can only start normally after the vehicle's central control system is connected and interacted with the smart helmet to ensure that the rider wears the helmet correctly. In related technologies, the helmet wearing detection solution relies on the lanyard buckle trigger mechanism, requiring the user to buckle the helmet strap to a specific position for effective wearing. However, since buckle-type wearing detection is not a universal mandatory requirement, when the helmet lanyard is worn loosely, the capacitive sensor cannot stably detect the wearing status of the helmet, and the low-temperature performance is poor, which seriously affects the user experience.

[0033] The preferred embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although the preferred embodiments of the present disclosure are shown in the accompanying drawings, it should be understood that the present disclosure can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited by the embodiments set forth herein. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided to make the present disclosure more thorough and complete, and to fully convey the scope of the present disclosure to those skilled in the art.

[0034] As used herein, the term "including" and its variations mean open inclusion, i.e., "including but not limited to". Unless otherwise stated, the term "or" means "and / or". The term "based on" means "based at least in part on". The terms "an example embodiment" and "an embodiment" mean "at least one example embodiment". The term "another embodiment" means "at least one additional embodiment". The terms "first", "second", etc. may refer to different or the same objects.

[0035] As mentioned above, since the helmet buckle wearing detection is not a universal mandatory requirement, when the helmet strap is worn loosely, the capacitive sensor cannot stably detect the wearing status of the helmet, and the low temperature performance is poor, which seriously affects the user experience.

[0036] In view of this, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a helmet with a detection function, including a body 10 and a wearing detection module 20.

[0037] The body 10 may be a multi-layer sandwich structure, for example, including an outer impact-resistant layer and an anti-buffer layer arranged in an inner layer, suitable for being worn on the head of a user at least when riding to protect the user. In some other embodiments of the present disclosure, the body 10 may also include appropriate accessories such as a lanyard 30 and goggles. The body 10 also includes a wearing opening (hereinafter also referred to as an opening), and when the user wears the body 10, the head can be inserted into the body 10 through the wearing opening to complete the wearing. When the body 10 is worn on the head, the body 10 is in a wearing orientation and in a wearing position. The body 10 is placed in a helmet fixing position when the riding tool is idle (i.e., when the riding tool is not used), and the body 10 is in an idle orientation (for example, the wearing opening of the body 10 faces the horizontal direction) and is located in an idle position. When the user needs to use the riding tool to ride, the user can take the body 10 out of the helmet fixing position and wear it on the head, and the body 10 is moved from the idle position of the idle orientation to the wearing orientation (for example, the wearing opening of the body 10 faces the direction of gravity) The wearing position.

[0038] The wearing detection module 20 is coupled to the body 10, and can be installed at an opening position of the body 10, or can be installed in a receiving slot in the body 10 adapted to the user's head. The wearing detection module 20 sends a wearing signal when the body 10 is in a correct wearing position. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the wearing detection module 20 at least includes a main control component 21, a first detection element 22, a first shielding element 23, and a temperature compensation element 24.

[0039] The main control component 21 is the core component of the entire wearing detection module 20, which is responsible for processing input signals, performing logical judgments, and communicating with other systems or components, and is used to manage and control the work of the entire wearing detection module 20. The first detection element 22 is a sensing element, which is electrically connected to the main control component 21. When the body 10 is worn on the user's head, the first detection element 22 can sense the approach of the user's head and thus generate a corresponding electromagnetic signal. The first detection element 22 can be a proximity sensor, a detection electrode plate or a similar electronic device, which uses changes in the electromagnetic field to identify whether an object is approaching. When the user wears the body 10 of the helmet, there is a wearing distance between the first detection element 22 and the user's head. The electromagnetic signal strength generated by the first detection element 22 at different wearing distances corresponds to it, so the wearing distance at this time can be determined based on the electromagnetic signal strength, and when the wearing distance meets the specification, it is determined that the helmet is in the correct wearing state at this time, and a wearing signal is sent.

[0040] The first shielding element 23 is arranged on the side of the first detection element 22 away from the user's head, with the purpose of reducing or eliminating electromagnetic interference signals from the external environment or other electronic devices, ensuring that the main control component 21 receives the electromagnetic signal caused by the user's head approaching, rather than a false trigger, thereby improving the accuracy of helmet wearing detection.

[0041] The temperature compensation element 24 is electrically connected to the main control component 21. The temperature compensation element 24 includes at least a thermistor 241 and a temperature compensation electrode. The main function of the temperature compensation element 24 is to generate a temperature-related compensation signal when the ambient temperature changes. Since the performance of many electronic components changes with temperature, the temperature compensation element 24 can monitor and adjust the output in real time, so that the wearing detection module 20 can maintain stable performance and accuracy even under different temperature conditions. For example, when the temperature rises or falls, it can correct the detection error that may be caused by temperature to ensure that the wearing detection result is not affected by temperature fluctuations.

[0042] According to the helmet with detection function provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure, the first detection element 22 generates an electromagnetic signal by sensing the approach of the user's head after the main body 10 is worn on the user's head. The first shielding element 23 is suitable for shielding the signal interference received by the first detection element 22, thereby improving the accuracy of wearing detection. The temperature compensation element 24 generates a temperature compensation signal when the ambient temperature changes, thereby eliminating the interference of temperature factors, and can solve the problems of unstable detection of the helmet wearing status and poor low-temperature performance.

[0043] In some embodiments, the first detection element 22 , the first shielding element 23 , and the temperature compensation element 24 are sequentially arranged to form a three-layer electrode structure.

[0044] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the first detection element 22, the first shielding element 23, and the temperature compensation element 24 are respectively flat electrode structures for sensing or generating electromagnetic field changes, signal shielding, and temperature response functions. The electrode plates are made of conductive materials, such as metal foil, conductive polymers, etc., and have specific geometric shapes and sizes according to functional requirements. The first detection element 22, the first shielding element 23, and the temperature compensation element 24 are arranged together in sequence according to the functional order to form a stacked three-layer structure. Specifically, the first detection element 22 is located in the innermost layer, close to the user's head; on its outer side is the first shielding element 23, which is used to prevent interference signals from affecting the detection element; finally, the temperature compensation element 24, which generates a temperature compensation signal by monitoring changes in ambient temperature, is located in the outermost layer. This design is not only compact and efficient, but also can ensure the functional complementarity and collaborative work between the various components, realize accurate detection of the wearing state, and maintain stable performance in a complex and changing environment.

[0045] In some embodiments, the wearing detection module 20 further includes a second detection element 25 and a second shielding element 26. The second detection element 25 is coupled to the body 10 and electrically connected to the main control component 21, and the second detection element 25 and the first detection element 22 are distributed at different positions on the body 10, and are suitable for sensing the proximity of the user's head after the body 10 is worn on the user's head to generate an electromagnetic signal. The second shielding element 26 is coupled to the side of the second detection element 25 away from the user's head, and is suitable for shielding the second detection element 25 from signal interference.

[0046] like Figure 1 As shown, the second detection element 25 and the second shielding element 26 constitute another wearing detection unit, and the second detection element 25 and the second shielding element 26 can be provided in one group or multiple groups as needed.

[0047] The second detection element 25 is another sensing component in the wearing detection module 20, which is coupled to the body 10 of the helmet and communicates with the main control component 21 by means of electrical connection. The second detection element 25 and the first detection element 22 are distributed at different positions of the body 10, which helps to achieve three-dimensional or multi-directional detection capabilities. After the user wears the helmet, the first detection element 22 and the second detection element 25 simultaneously sense the position of the user's head, and then mutually verify whether the helmet is worn correctly. In order to ensure that the data obtained by the second detection element 25 is accurate and reliable, the second shielding element 26 is arranged on the side of the second detection element 25 away from the user's head to reduce or eliminate external electromagnetic noise that may interfere with the normal operation of the second detection element 25, and ensure that only effective and real head proximity signals can be detected and transmitted to the main control component 21 for analysis and processing.

[0048] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, a multi-detection system is provided, in which a plurality of independent detection elements are respectively responsible for signal acquisition in different areas, and respective shielding elements are used to improve signal quality and the anti-interference capability of the system, thereby ensuring that the wearing detection module 20 can perform its functions stably and accurately.

[0049] In some embodiments, the helmet with detection function further includes a lanyard 30, a buckle assembly 31 and a lanyard detection module 32; the lanyard 30 is coupled to the body 10, the buckle assembly 31 is coupled to the lanyard 30, and is adapted to position the lanyard 30 at the user's jaw position when in a buckled state. The lanyard detection module 32 is coupled to the buckle assembly 31, and is adapted to send a matching signal when the buckle assembly 31 is in a buckled state.

[0050] like Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, a lanyard 30 is installed on the main body 10. A buckle assembly 31 is installed on the lanyard 30. When the buckle assembly 31 is in a mating state, the lanyard 30 can be located at the user's lower jaw. At this time, the lanyard 30 can stably restrain the main body 10 at the user's head position, prevent the helmet from falling off during driving, and improve the safety of the helmet. The lanyard detection module 32 is coupled to the buckle assembly 31, and sends a mating signal when the buckle assembly 31 is in a buckled state.

[0051] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, after the lanyard detection module 32 detects that the buckle assembly 31 is in a buckled state, it sends a matching signal to the wearing detection module 20. The wearing detection module 20 starts the wearing detection function after receiving the matching signal, and does not start the wearing detection function before receiving the matching signal, which helps to reduce the power consumption of the wearing detection module 20 and thereby extend the maintenance cycle of the helmet.

[0052] In some embodiments, the buckle assembly 31 includes a first mating portion 311 and a second mating portion 312, the first mating portion 311 is coupled to one of the lanyard 30 or the body 10, and the second mating portion 312 is suitable for being detachably connected to the first mating portion 311 so that the buckle assembly 31 is in a mating state.

[0053] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the number of the hanging rope 30 can be one. The first matching portion 311 is installed at one end of the hanging rope 30, and the second matching portion 312 is installed at the opening of the body 10. After the hanging rope 30 passes around the user's lower jaw, the first matching portion 311 and the second matching portion 312 are matched and connected. At this time, the first matching portion 311 and the second matching portion 312 are located on one side of the user's face.

[0054] In some alternative embodiments, the number of hanging ropes 30 may be two or more. The first matching portion 311 and the second matching portion 312 are respectively connected to different hanging ropes 30, and the first matching portion 311 and the second matching portion 312 are matched to be located at the user's lower jaw. Of course, by adjusting the length of some hanging ropes 30, the first matching portion 311 and the second matching portion 312 may be located on one side of the user's face.

[0055] The first matching portion 311 and the second matching portion 312 are detachably connected by plugging, pressing, rotating, etc., so that the user can wear and take off the helmet conveniently.

[0056] In some embodiments, the lanyard detection module 32 includes a magnetic member 321, a switch member 322, a control member 325, a first communication unit 323, and a first battery 324. The switch member 322 is coupled to the other of the second mating portion 312, and is adapted to be triggered after the first mating portion 311 and the second mating portion 312 are engaged, so that the control member 325 generates a mating signal. The first communication unit 323 is coupled to the control member 325, and is adapted to send a mating signal to the wearing detection module 20 and the central control and / or helmet lock of the riding device after the control member 325 generates the mating signal. The first battery 324 is adapted to supply power to the first communication unit 323 and the switch member 322.

[0057] In some embodiments, the switch component 322 may include a Hall switch or a reed switch. Taking the reed switch as an example, when there is no external magnetic field, due to the elasticity of the reed itself and the air gap between the contact surfaces, the two contacts inside the reed switch are separated and in a disconnected state. When a magnetic field of sufficient strength approaches the reed switch, the reeds therein will attract each other and close under the action of the magnetic field force, thereby achieving the conduction of the circuit. When the magnetic field is removed, the reed returns to its original state, the contacts are separated again, and the circuit is disconnected again. With this arrangement, the matching signal can be generated by the signal generating component of the switch component when the circuit is turned on. The circuit in the lanyard detection module 32 is turned on when the buckle assembly 31 is in a buckled state, and is disconnected when the buckle assembly 31 is not in a buckled state, which can save the power of the battery 324 and help extend the service life and maintenance cycle of the helmet. Similarly, the Hall switch can detect changes in magnetic field strength and indirectly reflect changes in the distance of the object through changes in relative position with the magnetic field source (such as a magnet). When the first matching portion 311 and the second matching portion 312 are close to each other and the magnetic member 321 and the switch component 322 are close to each other (for example, when the buckle assembly 31 is correctly closed or fixed), the switch component 322 will generate a matching signal, based on which it can be determined that the user has correctly used the helmet's lanyard 30.

[0058] The first communication unit 323 (such as a Bluetooth chip and a Bluetooth antenna, etc.) is responsible for sending the matching signal to the wearing detection module 20. The first communication unit 323 is coupled to the buckle assembly 31. When the switch component 322 is triggered, the control component 325 will generate a matching signal. At the same time, the first communication unit 323 is connected to the control component 325 by electrical connection, and can obtain the matching signal from the control component 325, and further process and transmit the matching signal. In order to ensure the normal operation of the entire lanyard detection module 32, the first battery 324 serves as a power supply to provide power support for the first communication unit 323 and the switch component 322. The lanyard detection module 32 is used to monitor and report whether the lanyard 30 is correctly paired or closed. The matching signal is generated by utilizing the magnetic force between the magnetic part 321 and the switch component 322, and then sent to the wearing detection module 20 via the first communication unit 323. At the same time, the self-sustaining and independent operation capabilities of the system are guaranteed by relying on battery power.

[0059] In some alternative embodiments, the switch component 322 may include a mechanical switch. A mechanical switch is a switch that uses mechanical movement to control the on and off of a circuit, and may include a trigger portion. For example, after the first mating portion 311 and the second mating portion 312 are engaged, the first mating portion 311 can push against the trigger portion and trigger the mechanical switch.

[0060] In some embodiments, the main control component 21 includes a main board 211, a second communication unit 212 and a second battery 213; the main board 211 is coupled to the main body 10, the second communication unit 212 is electrically connected to the main board 211 and is suitable for communicating with the first communication unit 323 and the central control component of the riding device, the second battery 213 is suitable for supplying power to the main board 211 and the second communication unit 212, and is suitable for supplying power to the detection element of the wearing detection module 20 after receiving a matching signal.

[0061] like Figure 1 As shown, the mainboard 211 is the core circuit board of the entire wearing detection module 20, carrying hardware interfaces and electronic components, and is responsible for processing, storing and transmitting various data and instructions. The mainboard 211 is connected to the body 10 by coupling. The second communication unit 212 (such as a Bluetooth chip and a Bluetooth antenna) is integrated in the main control component 21 and electrically connected to the mainboard 211. Its main function is to realize wireless or wired communication with other components. Specifically, it can communicate bidirectionally with the first communication unit 323 and the central control component of the riding device, thereby realizing data exchange and command transmission. The second battery 213 serves as a power supply device for the main control component 21 and the second communication unit 212, providing power guarantee for all components on the entire mainboard 211 and the independent second communication unit 212. When the matching signal is received, the power supply to the detection element of the wearing detection module 20 will be started.

[0062] In some embodiments, the helmet with detection function further includes an identification module 40, which is coupled to the body 10 and is suitable for communicating with an identification device of the riding device after the body 10 is stored in the helmet fixing position of the riding device.

[0063] like Figure 4 As shown, an identification module 40 is installed on the body 10. The identification module 40 has coded information and can realize the function of borrowing and returning helmets in cooperation with the helmet lock. A helmet fixing position is set on the riding device, and the identification module 40 communicates with the identification device of the riding device. If the identification device of the riding device can communicate with the identification module 40, it proves that the helmet has been returned at this time; if the identification device of the riding device cannot communicate with the identification module 40, it proves that the helmet has not been returned at this time, and a prompt signal can be issued or the locking of the vehicle can be prohibited.

[0064] In some embodiments, the identification module 40 includes a wireless identification ID card. In traditional shared bicycle services, helmets are fixed to the trams by means of lanyards or the like, which is convenient for riders to use. The embodiments of the present disclosure eliminate the traditional lanyard connection method and instead adopt wireless identification ID card technology. Users do not need to obtain and use helmets through physical lanyards, but instead use some form of wireless identification (such as RFID, Bluetooth, or NFC, etc.) to verify their identity before unlocking and wearing the helmet, thereby reducing potential safety risks caused by lanyards, improving safety during driving, simplifying the user's operating procedures, and making the wearing and taking of helmets more convenient and intelligent. In addition, wireless identification technology can provide more accurate helmet usage record tracking, which helps to improve management efficiency and service quality.

[0065] In some embodiments, the main control component 21 also includes an angle sensor 214 and a direction switch 215; the angle sensor 214 is coupled to the main body 10 and electrically connected to the main board 211, and is suitable for detecting the angle of the main body 10; the direction switch 215 is coupled between the second battery 213 and the wearing detection module 20, and is suitable for being turned on at least when the main body 10 is in a wearing orientation, and is suitable for being disconnected at least when the main body 10 is in an idle orientation, wherein the wearing orientation forms a non-zero angle with the idle orientation.

[0066] like Figure 1 As shown, the angle sensor 214 is coupled to the body 10 and is connected to the main board 211 by electrical connection. Its main function is to monitor and detect the angle change of the body 10 in real time. When the user wears the helmet, the angle sensor 214 can sense the rotation angle information of the helmet relative to a reference plane (such as the ground, a horizontal line or other reference points). The direction switch 215 turns on or off the circuit under certain conditions. Here, it is located between the second battery 213 and the wearing detection module 20.

[0067] The specific working principle of the helmet according to the embodiment of the present disclosure is as follows: when the body 10 is in the wearing orientation, the direction switch 215 will be closed, allowing the second battery 213 to power the wearing detection module 20, ensuring that the module can operate normally and perform wearing detection and other possible functions. When the helmet is in a non-wearing state or an idle orientation, a non-zero angle difference is formed with the wearing orientation. At this time, the direction switch 215 will be disconnected, cutting off the power supply to the wearing detection module 20. This design helps to save electricity, avoid unnecessary energy consumption, and can stop the execution of related functions when the helmet is not worn correctly, thereby improving the safety and reliability of the device.

[0068] In a second aspect of the present disclosure, a cycling device is provided, comprising a cycling tool and any one of the helmets with a detection function provided in the first aspect of the present disclosure.

[0069] According to the riding device provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure, the helmet of the riding device includes a wearing detection module 20. The first detection element 22 generates an electromagnetic signal by sensing the approach of the user's head after the main body 10 is worn on the user's head. The first shielding element 23 is suitable for shielding the signal interference received by the first detection element 22, thereby improving the accuracy of wearing detection. The temperature compensation element 24 generates a temperature compensation signal when the ambient temperature changes, eliminating the interference of temperature factors, and can solve the problems of unstable detection of the helmet wearing status and poor low-temperature performance.

[0070] In some embodiments, the riding tool includes a vehicle body and a helmet fixing position, wherein the helmet fixing position is coupled to the vehicle body and is suitable for storing the main body 10 in an idle orientation.

[0071] The vehicle body is the basic structure of the riding tool, that is, the main part of the electric vehicle, including the frame, wheels, transmission system, brake system and other core components. The helmet fixing position is a position or device specially designed on the vehicle body for safely storing and fixing the rider's helmet. The helmet fixing position is connected to the vehicle body by coupling to ensure that the helmet can be stably and conveniently placed on the vehicle body when not in use (in an idle state). Coupling here refers to a physical connection, embedded installation or a matching fixing structure, which allows the helmet to be firmly attached to the designated area without slipping or losing.

[0072] In some embodiments, the riding device further comprises an identification device, which is arranged at the helmet fixing position and is adapted to communicate with the identification module 40 of the helmet after the helmet body 10 is stored at the helmet fixing position.

[0073] The identification device is a wireless communication component on the riding device, which is arranged at the helmet fixing position for storing the helmet. When the rider stores the helmet in the helmet fixing position, the identification device can communicate with the identification module 40 in the helmet. It can verify the identity of the helmet (for example, confirm the return of the helmet in the rental service), record the use of the helmet (such as monitoring whether the helmet has been placed correctly), or provide support for other smart functions (such as activating anti-theft alarms, synchronizing health data, etc.).

[0074] In some embodiments, the riding device further includes a third communication unit, which is coupled to the riding tool and is suitable for communicating with the second communication unit 212 of the helmet.

[0075] It can be understood that the third communication unit may include a Bluetooth antenna and a Bluetooth chip, etc. After the user wears the lanyard 30, the lanyard detection module 32 sends a matching signal. After receiving the matching signal, the wearing detection module 20 powers the detection element to detect whether the helmet is worn correctly. If the helmet is worn correctly, a wearing signal is sent through the second communication unit 212. After the central control component of the riding device receives the wearing signal through the third communication unit, it allows the electric vehicle to start.

[0076] The embodiments of the present disclosure are intended to cover all such substitutions, modifications and variations that fall within the broad scope of the appended claims. Therefore, any omissions, modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the embodiments of the present disclosure should be included in the scope of protection of the present disclosure.
